Greetings in Jesus Name.

Derek Prince Ministries vision for 2024 is to disciple the nations. Jesus had a mission to Redeem mankind from the Kingdom of Darkness and place mankind into the Kingdom of Light and His Beloved Son. He paid a high price to Redeem us it cost him all he had his precious life blood.

I was thrilled at how generous so many of you have been in the past year. It has made it possible to give away over R250.000+ worth of Derek’s books on outreach. (This was also possible in 2022). This does not include the books like the 800page Afrikaans Foundation hard cover books that were already paid for from outreach funds as well as a number of other Afrikaans books. We printed and spiral bind 100’s of Self Study Bible Courses in a number of African languages for outreach to ministries, Bible Study Groups, churches, and prisons.

When we see how much of Derek’s material is free on the Website, Cell phone app and YouTube etc. one wondered how you run an office that needs finances but we keep giving out and sharing testimonies of how Derek’s teaching is impacting the lives of so many in Southern Africa and the funds come in. We have people phoning or emailing or visit the office and ask to donate. And they are very generous. So, a BIG thank you to all our amazing donors who give so generously and faithfully every month. You are making a huge difference in discipling the nations.

The other ESPECIALLY important group is our Prayer Support Warriors. Without their prayers we would not accomplish what we have and what we hope to accomplish in 2024. We need your prayer support every day. Please E-mail and let me know if we can pray for you at any time. We do come under attack. We keep focused on our mission to get Derek’s teaching out in as many languages so that people will hear the truth of the Word and follow Jesus with all their hearts and lives. Our focus is on Discipling the 11 nations we are responsible for is our strong emphasis.

Many people are requesting Bible Study material they want to get into the Word and build strong foundations in their lives. There is a NEW BOOK a BIBLE STUDY ON ROMANS. There are 20 CDS and DVDS in this study.

DEREK’S TEACHING ON USB IS AVAILABLE IN MP3. EMAIL OR PHONE TO ORDER.

One of our long-standing supporters has offered to donate to a new project we will be involved with the VIDEO BIBLE SCHOOL PROJECT- 20 DVD teachings we already have the 10 Foundations DVDS in 13 African languages.

This will entail a digital translation of the English Subtitled message into African languages. Editing, proofreading, adding to the DVD’s then voicing the message onto Mp4. These will be use in Bible Study Groups, Ministries, Personal Bible Study and families and the audio added to the Mega Voice Solar Player.

Pastor Hampie Stemmet

Pastor Hampie Stemmet is on his next round trip to the Cape!!! Please pray for safe travels and that the vehicles will handle the heavy load of Derek’s books and Bibles!! Pastor Hampie Stemmet collected a carload of Afrikaans Bibles that were donated and 40 Geesvervulde Gelowige se Handleiding (Foundations) books and Oorwinning deur die Vader 5 book compendium, 50 Afrikaans Self Study Bible Courses, a selection of English CD and DVD titles. 10 Afrikaans Foundations DVD sets. A USB with the Foundations DVD in English and Afrikaans and the English CDS.

Pastor Stemmet left on 11th February for another 6-week trip to Northern, Western and Southern Cape. He has 80% of the finances needed for the trip. Fuel is expensive for such a long trip and caravan parks have increased their costs a lot recently. If you would like to contribute towards his trip taking Derek’s books and Bibles, the people he ministers to are often not able to afford books and Bibles and are desperate to get Bibles and Derek’s teaching. Any funds will help to cover the cost of Pastor Stemmet’s trip. I am getting a daily report he stopped at Springfontein OFS on 11th Feb then at Beaufort West with the temperature at 43 deg!!! there was a nice pool to swim in.

He was in the Sedgefield area then Hartenbos near Mosselbay. Goedehoop in Cape Town area as he now moves up the West Coast. He ministered from Leviticus to a lot of people the churches were very full. He spoke at an Indian church on Rom.14. with Pastor Darrel and his wife, there again the hall was full. He ministered in the NG church in Robertson, he was so blessed the pastor preached on Heb 13. The Holy Spirit was very present.

We purchased 60 Mega Voice Solar Players for Outreach.

The first 10 Mega Voice players have been given to Pastor Stemmet for outreach in the Cape. The Mega Voice Solar Player with 400 hours of Derek’s teaching will be given to the Bible Study Group leaders that have been established in Alexander Bay, Doringbaai, Oudsthoorn SAP Police College students (30).

There is a group of farmers wives who started a Bible Study Group near Robertson, the men asked to join them, they did not miss out! The Orange River enters the Atlantic Ocean at Alexander Bay. The once thriving mining town only has a few thousand people. Over 90% of the people speak Afrikaans. A lady who received the Afrikaans books from a previous trip there by Pastor Stemmet started a Bible Study Group in her Café once a week. This Bible Study has grown to 20 people now attending the Bible Study group.

South Africa - Northwest and Kalahari - Robert Moffat missionary

One of our dedicated supporters near the office brought a friend to the office who lives and ministers as a lay pastor in the Northwest Province, Kuruman, De Ben, Kalahari region. There is such a shortage of pastors that she went for lay pastor training. She does have a regular job but goes out on Sundays to minister. We supplied her with Afrikaans Foundation books, Oorwinning deur die Vader, Afspraak in Jerusalem, Afrikaans Self Study Bible Courses, and the Mega Voice Solar Player. She left the office thrilled with all the material which she will share with all those she ministers too.

The well-known missionary Rober Moffat (21 December 1795 – 9 August 1883) was a Scottish Congregationalist missionary to Africa, father of Mary Moffat Livingstone and father-inlaw of David Livingstone, and first translator of the Bible into Setswana. These are missionaries who pioneered and brought the Gospel to these regions.

Namibia 10 Bible Schools, 1 in Angola, 1 in Zambia - Udo Wahl

Santa Clara- Ondangwa - Rundu- Divundu -Chetto (Omega 3) & Katima Mulilo - Imkerhof - Windhoek (2024) - Mariental. Udo Wahl who started a Bible School in Namibia trained Bible Students who have now opened another 10 Bible Schools in Namibia and 1 in Angola and 1 in Zambia and they are still opening more Bible Schools.

He felt strongly to get the Romans teaching of Derek’s which is 20 CDs or 20 DVDs Udo Wahl was delighted to receive the NEW ROMANS BIBLE STUDY BOOK. All the leaders met in January for him to share about the Romans teaching for all the Bible Schools. We sent two boxes of books for his Bible School Library and the other Bible Schools.

We were very excited to get in touch with Udo Wahl this past year. He heard Derek speak in Germany many years ago and bought all Derek’s teaching in German and English he could lay hands on.

Madagascar: Dries and Valerie du Plessis

Have been faithfully serving the Lord in Mahajanga for the past almost 30yrs. Dries has sold his catamaran for a smaller 2 engine cabin boat that will be easier to handle and not depend on the wind. They are busy selling the very big property and house to move to a smaller place to cut down on all the upkeep of a large property. They were running two ministries but are concentrating on Derek Prince Ministries now so do not need the space.

Dries and Valerie have been very busy with translation and editing of the “Hearing God’s Voice” book and “Who Cares for Widows, Orphans, the Poor and Oppressed.” They will be voicing both books for radio broadcasting and printing” Hearing God’s Voice.” They are currently airing on 6 radio stations and hope to increase these to 12 radio stations. One long standing pastor and church on the East side of Madagascar has regularly ordered Derek’s books from Dries. He contacted him recently and Dries was able to give him books for his church which he will be teaching his leaders and congregation.
